Should the public have access to independent analysis of the products they consume?

The vast majority of analyses of over-the-counter, prescription, and recreational drugs are performed in secret with no independent oversite or review. No other historical record, free from politically-controlled agencies, is currently available in North America nor most other parts of the world.

EcstasyData, a project of Erowid Center, needs the support of professionals, students, parents, individuals with means, and small foundations for a total yearly budget of around $90,000 USD. Erowid Center's general budget and the co-pays we require fund most of this cost.
